Entity Item Tooltips
by OfficePigeon
Entity Item Tooltips adds extra information to tooltips on spawning items, such as spawn eggs, mob buckets and similar items, on the client.
What it does
Hovering over an item that spawns a mob shows additional details about that mob in its tooltip. The information covers variants for mobs such as axolotls, cats, chickens, pandas and parrots, along with colors, sizes, and invisibility status where applicable. Sheep and wolves show their wool or collar colors, shulkers are covered too, and item frames and armor stands are included in the listed entities.
The mod is client-side only, so players install it and servers do not need it. It requires Fabric API on Fabric, and it is published only for Fabric. Files cover 1.21.9 and 1.21.10, with 1.0.4 for 1.21.10 as the latest build, first released on 2025-11-06 and last updated on 2025-12-02. The license is All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source, though source code and an issue tracker are public. Ukrainian translations are included, courtesy of StarmanMine142. The author notes that it works with mobs that have explicit support and with Pouches Mod.
